Twas Thanksgiving Night...

When all through the house, we were decorating the tree...We got a new Christmas tree this year from IKEA. I'm really happy with it since it is nice and full and didn't take alot of tweaking after assembly. Plus, it is rather compact so it doesn't take up a lot of unnecessary floor space. The long needles kinda remind me of the Christmas tree Grandpa and Grandma always had when we were growing up, but I think there've been great improvements in fake trees in the last 30-ish years!

Rhyming

This afternoon on our way home from school Keanu heard the newscaster say something about Germany.

"Hey, they said Germany."
Ten seconds later...
"Germany has the same letter as Courtney."

Isn't it amazing how kids' minds suddenly realize things about the world around them?!

Wordless Wednesday

What happened?

A self portrait:

Want Don't Want

Mommy, no. I want don't want it.
- Kate in response to her green beans at dinner, jacket when it's chilly, socks that don't have puppies on them, bath before bed, and pretty much anything else that she doesn't agree with.

Ahhh, the joys of toddlerhood!
